Why should I share anything with you? All you've done is try to upset me.

I myself have a really hard time understanding how Jesus saves and how he did so by dying on a cross. I don't understand the connection other than being told "well because".
Jesus didn't fulfill the prophecies of the Jewish Messiah (I'm not sure he fulfilled even one). When he didn't do what the Messiah was supposed to do but was crucified instead, the narrative had to be molded to fit the story of Jesus. Instead of building the 3rd temple, gathering all Jews back to Israel, ushering in world peace, and uniting all of the world under the God of Israel, the Messiah was turned into a sacrificial lamb.

Nice deflect..I just tried to show you the irony in this situation..

(2) You condemn other religions, they condemn other religions

I was put on trial for murder. I was convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
I just don't try to sugarcoat my past.
I'd do it again too if the situation arises.
Eta: I was ready to unload and tell my story, but I see you're just trying to be like "aha! Gotcha!" I have nothing to gain, so this discussion is closed.

I didn't know that, BigEd. I know now is not a good time, but I wish I could learn more about what happened.

You just won't let it go will you. Maybe I'll give you a redacted version.
Eta: this isn't going to have the ending you expect.

I regretfully watched this video. To anybody who saw the Berg, is it worse? And no I'm not watching it.
The video doesn't sicken me, but the actions and threats do.

America called, REDACTED answered.
After the terrorist attacks of 9/11, REDACTED turned his back on his college career at the University of Louisiana to serve his country. What he got in return was a prison sentence.
After serving two years of a three year sentence, REDACTED was released on parole on June 22, 2007.
And the star witness for the prosecution? The same man who REDACTED thought was being attacked by a captured insurgent.
As reported in the REDACTED, 22,
of Gonzales, La., was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced in August 2004 to three years in prison for the April 28, 2004, shooting death of REDACTED in the village of Taal Al Jal, which is about 40 miles southwest of Kirkuk.
REDACTED said that he shot REDACTED because he thought he lunged at the soldier who was holding him, Sgt. Jeffrey D. Waruch of Olean, N.Y., and that he wasn't aware REDACTED hands were bound.
Waruch was accused in the other shooting, in which a 13-year-old girl was killed and her mother and sister wounded. Waruch was discharged without being accused of a crime. Army officials determined it was unlikely they would find sufficient evidence against him.
The REDACTED also reported that in the months leading to Waruch's deployment in Iraq, two women alleging domestic abuse obtained temporary restraining orders against him - each order requiring him to surrender his firearms to police.
During an interview, Waruch's supervisor, Staff Sgt. Marcus Warner of New Iberia, La., called him 'a cancer to my soldiers,' and he unsuccessfully tried to prevent him from going to Iraq.
According to an article in the REDACTED
REDACTED testified that Waruch ordered him to shoot REDACTED if he moved, so he raised his rifle and aimed at the man's head. Looking through his scope, he was unable to see Waruch put the handcuffs on. When he saw what looked like REDACTED lunging at Waruch, he believed that his sergeant's life was in danger.
The defense tried to keep out a statement REDACTED gave a month after the incident, admitting that he was pumped on adrenaline and "had to know" that REDACTED was cuffed "before I shot him but it just did not register in my mind at that time." REDACTED signed the statement after an agent with the Army Criminal Investigation Command (CID) told him he flunked a polygraph; he really hadn't.
Prosecutors goaded him. Hadn't it been obvious that a herder walking in a field with cows was not fleeing the village?
"You don't look at everybody as Saddam Hussein himself, sir, but until it is clarified otherwise, you have to be suspicious," REDACTED answered. "I mean, people are dying every day, so you have be suspicious of everyone, sir."
"Answer the question," the prosecutor said. "Did you or did you not assume that Mr. REDACTED had escaped from the village?"
"I knew he had come from the village, sir," REDACTED said. "I didn't know. I hadn't formed an opinion based off that."
Two of REDACTED fellow soldiers testified that he often talked about wanting to kill an Iraqi. But under cross-examination, they said most soldiers did. REDACTED sergeant said he was one of the better soldiers in his platoon.
Waruch's credibility was also on trial. Staff Sgt. Marcus Warner testified that Waruch was a "compulsive liar." His nickname was "Shady Jay."
In a related article in the REDACTED; Virginia-based attorney Charles Gittins said a "miscarriage of justice" led the Army to convict PFC. REDACTED in August 2004. REDACTED shot REDACTEDr in the back of the head while another soldier struggled to handcuff the Iraqi man on Feb. 28, 2004, the Army said.
